U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIORBUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENTMEDFORD DISTRICTGRANTS PASS RESOURCE AREA2164 NE Spalding AveGrants Pass OR 97526(541) 471-6500Medford Mail@blm.govCATEGORICAL EXCLUSION DOCUMENTATION / DECISION RECORDWhitehorse Park Fencing and Gate ReplacementNEPA No.: DOI-BLM-OR-M000-2009-0017-CXA. Proposed ActionThe BLM is proposing to replace, repair, and install fencing around certain portions of theWhitehorse County Park boat ramp area perimeter, and to install a gate to a non-public accessroad adjoining the parking area. Portions of the current fencing would be removed and replacedwith more durable and scenically compatible barriers (large boulders or wooden fencing)Portions of the current fencing will be repaired, and new fencing will be installed in somelocations currently without fencing. A standard BLM metal gate will be installed at the entranceto a pump access road that spurs off of the parking area. The proposed fencing, boulders, andgate will limit vehicle access to areas designated for non-motorized use only, thereby preventingresource degradation along the Rogue National Wild and Scenic River. The Rogue NationalWild and Scenic River was designated for protection of its Outstandingly Remarkable Values:natural scenic qualities along the river, fish, and recreation.B. Location/Land Use Allocation:The project is on BLM-owned lands at Whitehorse County Park boat ramp and parking area,located within the recreational section of the Rogue National Wild and Scenic River corridor atT.36 S., R.6 W., Section 18 SW¼, SE¼ and Section 19 NW¼ NE¼.C. Need / Rationale for the Proposed Action:Unauthorized motorized-vehicle use on BLM lands outside the public road and parking area nearthe Whitehorse County Park boat ramp area is creating resource degradation incompatible withthe scenic and recreational values of the Rogue River corridor. The public is also accessing thearea around a Josephine County irrigation pump. The Wild and Scenic Rivers Act requires theBLM to protect and enhance the recreational and scenic values of the river on BLM lands withinthe river corridor. The fencing around the boat ramp area and entrance road is damaged and nolonger able to protect BLM river-corridor lands and Outstandingly Remarkable Values for whichthe corridor was designated from motorized access. The damaged fencing also increases thehazard for vehicles parking along an eroding bank along the river.Whitehorse Park Fencing and Gate ReplacementDOI-BLM-OR-M000-2009-0017-CXPage 1 of 7
The purpose of this project is to prevent unauthorized motorized access by installing (orrepairing) fencing, a gate, and boulders around portions of boat ramp area perimeter in a mannercompatible with the scenic and recreational values of the Rogue Wild and Scenic River.D. Description of the Proposed Action:The proposed action would remove several hundred feet of current fencing. The current fencingconsists of wooden posts with a single cable between them. Following removal, approximately900 feet of new fencing would be installed, as well as large boulders along approximately 200feet of perimeter facing the Rogue River. Approximately 900 feet of existing but damaged fencewould also be repaired.New fencing would consist of six- to eight-inch diameter posts and two-tiers of four- to six-inchcross-railings, all constructed of naturally weathered wood obtained from a local supplier. Postholes would be dug no more than two feet deep and 10 to 12 inches in diameter, using a tractorwith a rear-mounted auger attachment. Posts would be cemented into the ground.Boulders facing the river would be large enough to be immovable without heavy machinery.In addition, the proposed action would replace a currently existing but non-functioning gate atthe entrance to a non-public road the county uses for access to a pump.The proposed action would also install Carsonite signs along the perimeter, notifying the publicthat motorized vehicle access is prohibited outside the road, ramp, and parking area. Signs willbe hung from the fence to inform users of the area and the purpose for the fence.Materials used would be compatible with the existing scenic landscape to preserve the scenicvalues of the river corridor.E. Project Design Features1. Tractor would remain on the roadways, and would not enter adjacent meadows, toprevent damage to potential cultural resource artifacts and to prevent spread of weedseed.2. The cultural resources specialist would be present during fence removal and digging ofthe post holes, at the discretion of the cultural resource specialist.3. Currently there are several Yellow Starthistle sites in the southern portion of the projectarea. To reduce the spread of new noxious weed populations, fencing would be removedand constructed first from the north (the entrance of the park) working toward the south(towards the river) so as to not spread seeds to uninfested areas.4. All equipment or vehicles used in the project, would be pressure washed to remove alldirt and debris prior to entering BLM lands and when moving from infested to noninfested areas within the project area. This includes a thorough cleaning of theundercarriage in a designated cleaning area.5. Equipment and material would not be stored in known weed populations (direction fromthe Grants Pass Resource Area Botanist would be provided).6. Temporary roads or trails off of permanent roads would not be constructed throughknown weed sites when possible.Whitehorse Park Fencing and Gate ReplacementDOI-BLM-OR-M000-2009-0017-CXPage 2 of 7
7. Seed and straw used for restoration, replanting of bare soil, and post-project treatmentthroughout the project area would be native species and weed free to prevent the furtherspread of noxious weeds. All seeding would be contingent on seed availability.F. Plan ConformanceThe proposed action is in conformance with the following plans:Record of Decision (ROD) and Resource Management Plan (RMP) for the MedfordDistrict (2008)Final EIS for the Revision of the Resource Management Plans of the Western OregonBureau of Land Management (2008)Decision Record and Environmental Assessment for the Medford District IntegratedWeed Management Plan (April 1998)Whitehorse Park Fencing and Gate ReplacementDOI-BLM-OR-M000-2009-0017-CXPage 3 of 7
F. Compliance with the Natio nal Environmental Policy ActThe Proposed Action qualifies as a categorical exclusion under Department 43 CFR 46.21 O(f),"Routine and continuing government business, including such things as . . maintenance,renovations, and replacement activities having limited context and intensity (e.g. , limited sizeand magnitude or short-term effects)."Title 43, Section 46.205(c) of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) requires the review of thisaction to determine if any of the "extraordinary circumstances" found at 43 CFR 46.215 wouldapply. If any of the extraordinary circumstances apply, then an otherwise categorically excludedaction would require additional analysis and environmental documentation.The proposed action has been reviewed to determine if extraordinary circumstances exist thatwould require further environmental analysis and documentation. None have been identified(see attached review).G. DecisionI have reviewed this CE, plan conformance and NEP A compliance review and have determinedthe proposed project is in conformance with the approved land use plan and that no furtherenvironmental analysis is required. It is my decision to implement the project as described. -IAbbie JossieField ManagerGrants Pass Resources AreaWhitehorse Park Fencing and Gate ReplacementDOI-BLM-OR-MOOO-2009-00 17-CX-:SQ .

fencing, which has angle type and corrugated type; but security palisade fencing has only corrugated type. With high strength, sharp prongs and narrow pale spacing, the steel palisade fencing can achieve high level of security to prevent intruders. It's widely used for church fencing, residence fencing, factory fencing, road fencing and so on.
